Most. of readers aro aware ihat a portion of tl-, o Abolitionisis have not joined the Liberty party, but vote witli the old parties, or are Non Resistnnis, ard do not vote at all. Tliis scction of the Anli.-lavery tnen have a national organizo lion, and a large paper, called the National Antiflavery Standard. This is tfie organ of the Sociely, and i? has been remarkable for its bitternnss ogainst ihe Liberty party, and was therefore quotfd and praiscd last year by iimnv whig papers as a vaiuable auxiliary of thoir caiiÈe. The paper is under the control of three persons who follow in the wake of Garrison, and are endeavoring to commit the u-hole body of Abolitionists to the Dissclution pi the Union. We npprehend a large portion of them will strongly dissent from tlüs project. A late number of the Standard thus defines the posiüon of the Society."THE WOUKTO BE DONE, i1 What is to be done' is aeked on every hand. There is no middle course left to those who would be true to the slave. Dissolve the U-mon . We ehould no longer say now, Dissolution or Abolition, for the alternative wouldnot be ticceptcd by ihe South, bot Dis SOLUTION AT Ai Y RATE, and IMMEOTATELY. - Nothinw is teft us but this. The law of eelfpreservation would compel us lo this now. - But for the elave we are almost powerles?, so long as the bonds of Union remain in forrn unbroken. This hst proof of the moral and political depravity of the peole, should convince the most sceptical, thatthus conseuting wilh evil, paralyses whnt good we might have hoped existed ín tl-e Northern people. To Dissohtion ihen, we should hend alaur efforts. Let none be deceived by the allegaüon lliat Texas is not yet annexed. - Those who listen to il are most sadly deceived, and are allowiug golden moments to pass away which shouki be used to arouse the peoile before they settle back again into ihat death-üke quiet, which grows more and more fearful vvith. every unsueceasful attempt to resist the lyrranny ihat oppresEes them, as wit eac!) attempt the power of resistonce growe smaller and smaller. Let us not be deceived: "Texas in or out,' we go for ike JDissolulion. But with Texaa in, we need, we can have, no strong-er proof Üiat the Union is, as it has ever been, a curse to the people, and ihose who odhere to it should be hranded as the enemies of iheir counliy; and the monuments of the fnlhers who faslened it vpon vs, should be tazed i o Uu: ff round."
